This isn’t just a quick stop; it’s an experience, a journey through decades past. Prepare to be captivated by the sheer volume and variety of memorabilia on display, a veritable treasure trove of Americana.

Beyond the captivating collection of memorabilia, the on-site restaurant serves up top-notch fare. The menu boasts a delicious selection of dishes, and the friendly and knowledgeable servers are happy to offer recommendations. On our visit, we heeded our server’s advice and tried two of their specialties, and we were absolutely delighted. The food was not only delicious but also prepared with evident care and attention to detail. It was the perfect complement to the overall nostalgic atmosphere. The experience extends beyond the indoor displays. The property itself is a showcase of vintage items, with fascinating pieces scattered throughout the outdoor areas. You can stroll through a veritable outdoor museum, discovering hidden gems around every corner. Inside, a dedicated museum building houses even more treasures, offering a deeper dive into the history and culture of the past. For those interested in automotive history and events, the “Autodome” provides a unique focus, showcasing the evolution of the automobile and hosting various related events. Whether you’re a seasoned collector, a history buff, or simply looking for a fun and memorable experience, this Route 66 landmark is an absolute must-see. If your travels take you anywhere near this area, make sure to carve out some time to explore this extraordinary destination. You won’t be disappointed.”
